[edit]

Paradise Kiss is only a 5 volume Manga

Isabella description incorrect

[edit]

Isabella is not a transvestite (despite Tokyopop ignorantly calling her a "dragqueen" in a summary), she is a non-op transsexual. This section is both factually and politically incorrect. Please fix this.

Not a Sequel

[edit]

ParaKiss involes Yazawa Gakuen, but it has a totally different cast of characters. It's set in the same universe, yes, however, that doesn't make it a sequel to Gokinjo Monogatari.

anime/manga differences

[edit]

is there any differences between the manga/anime version? there should be a section for this.

All I remember is that the anime didn't have the sort-of epilogue that was at the end of the manga (where Caroline is older and married to that guy she liked at the beginning (forgot his name!)). QueenStupid 17:25, 7 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
The manga runs 5x10 part, the anime only 12 episodes. That means almost 80% compression for the motion picture. Essentially most of Georgie's negative personality aspects were omitted and the end game is highly sketchy in the anime. 91.83.14.166 (talk) 22:11, 1 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

"Last Run"

[edit]

I'm curious, is the "Last Run" information supposed to be the last time it aired, or the last time it aired a new episode? If it's the latter, then I think it should be January instead of August, but I'm not sure. Osakadensetsu 01:56, 14 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Nevermind, I just realized it says "Original Run", and I know it was over by the end of January. I'm not sure on what date, though. Can anyone confirm what date it was? Osakadensetsu 01:59, 14 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Para Kiss

[edit]

The article claims that the Para Kiss abbreviation comes from fans but I'm pretty sure it originates from the "Para Kiss" labels being used on the clothing and then was picked up by fans. Bride of lister 00:29, 29 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Parakiss Logo.gif

[edit]

Image:Parakiss Logo.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 07:21, 6 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Miwako with special needs?

[edit]

There appears to be a contradiction in the anime. In the first episode, when Yukari loses her notebook, Miwako finds it, unable to read her name and then asks George if he's sure such kanji are spelled as "Yukari Hayasaka". This would imply Miwako is semi-illiterate, which is almost impossible in Japan, so maybe she is a bit retarded? On the other hand, in ep 11. she exchanges new year's greeting mobile phone messages with Tokumori, which hints she is OK with written japanese. Could somebody answer this (possibly based on knowledge of the full manga) and address the issue in the article, if suitable? Thanks in advance! 91.83.14.166 (talk) 22:17, 1 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There's no need to address this in the article. A kanji character can be pronounced several different ways (see onyomi vs. kunyomi for starters), and given the numbers of homophones in Japanese, a sound will be written in different kanji depending on meaning. In daily use, people uses context to determine the appropriate use, but when it comes to names, there is no context. Often a person, when first introducing himself, will give a business card and then say the name. This tells the person how to write and pronounce the name, thus preventing confusion. According the Jim Breen's WWWDict, the kanji for Hayasaka (早坂), can also be read as Saotome, Sootome, Hayasa, or Hayazaka. This is why Miwako asked George for affirmation. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.236.179.147 (talk) 22:33, 10 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Summary needed

[edit]

A summary is needed to explain what this is about. Apparently "Paradise Kiss" refers to an organization of some type. Models are mentioned, but not whether what is being done is fashion modeling, hand modeling, creation of a doll or android body, or a clone army. -- SEWilco (talk) 15:33, 20 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The magazine

[edit]

It was serialized in the Japanese fashion magazine ja:Zipper not in the manga magazine ja:Zipper comic, both of which are/were published by Shodensha. This fact can be confirmed by the description in the official website of the live action movie, if you can read Japanese. Also, Yukari's first model shooting is for Zipper and Yazawa Ai let Arashi tell her that the manga itself is serialized in the fashion magazine. (I don't know if this line is faithfully translated into English since the joke works only for Japanese readers. I have only read Japanese one.) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 219.117.176.117 (talk) 09:24, 4 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Blacklisted Links Found on the Main Page

[edit]

Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request it's removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:
